addedNew Playable LanguagesWe've added in the option to play in German, Japanese and Simplified Chinese. We're also working on more localization options, so keep an eye out if you're interested.
addedRun SelectionThere's now a new screen when starting a run to select your starting point. This is mostly a nice visual way to see your progress for now, but it'll be used to select between different chapters in the future!
changedNew Weapon SpritesWe've changed the look of a few of the weapons! They should feel more unique now, especially when seeing them all lined up back at your camp.
changedThe Rest™️Lots of bug fixes as usual, but more importantly: there was a big focus on performance. While still not perfect, we're doing what we can to make loading times as quick as possible. There's also been an effort to reduce RAM usage while playing the game, so that as many people can experience the game as possible!
